Chapter 269 Please Have Mercy On Me


    Despite of what happened, Jack remained a member of the Gu family. Despite Mr. Gu''s anger, he


    spoke to Arthur, "Send someone to keep an eye on him."


    "Understood, sir. It will be done immediately."


    Mr. Gu brought the teacup to his lips, savoring the tea''s warmth into his system. However, it wasn''t


    enough to change his bad mood, "One more thing. Kindly check up on what Jacob has been doing


    lately!"


    Mr. Gu thought he treated Jacob as if he was his own son. However, Jacob obviously had never been


    grateful to him.


    He remembered that Jacob threatened him with the Gu Consortium because of Emily. Having been the


    CEO for so many years, Jacob knew all the secret transactions that would make the business crumble


    if they were ever brought out to the public.


    For the first time, Mr. Gu was aware that Jacob didn''t care about anything in the consortium at all, or


    maybe he knew something about what Mr. Gu had been trying to hide all these years!


    If that was the case, he didn''t need to be kind to Jacob anymore!


    Anything he gave Jacob, he could always take it back!


    The Gu family were so busy in their own troubles, nobody noticed the dirty woman who escaped from


    Jack''s basement.


    Rose sighed in relief. She never thought that she would see the light of the day ever again.


    She had been imprisoned in a dark basement and miserably tortured by Jack for too long. What date


    was it today? She had forgotten. She suffered so much that death could be considered a luxury for her.N?velDrama.Org owns all ? content.


    She unexpectedly escaped and she was truly thanking the heavens for letting her go.


    She had no idea what happened. It was all just a fuzzy memory. Right now, she wanted to stay away


    from the Gu Family, from Jack, and from the Tao Family. She had to find a way where they wouldn''t find


    her.


    She knew how much they hated her. And if they ever caught her, they will make sure she wouldn''t


    escape and make her miserable for the rest of her life!


    The sky was gray and dark. It was also raining hard.


    Ignoring her pain, she limped until she reached the park. She found the rockery and sought refuge


    there.


    She remembered her life before. She graduated from a prestigious university andter, became a chief


    jewelry designer of a well-knownpany. She lived a life of fame and shing lights.


    When she met and got into a rtionship with Jack, she thought she would be able to live a high-ss


    type of life. Then it turned out to be her biggest nightmare.


    Jack, Jacob, and Emily. There were the ones to me! They made her like this!


    Her resentment towards them only fired up her will to live!


    The rockery was filled with rubbish left by some uneducated tourists. She scurried through the rubbish


    to find food. She grabbed a piece of hard bread that went bad and took a bite of it. She must survive!


    She must survive long enough to get her revenge!


    As long as she lived, she would make sure to turn their lives into living hell!


    Rose kept eating the bread, plotting her next step.


    In the Tyrone Mansion, As time passed by, Emily came to know that even though Jacob didn''t care


    much for the baby, he made sure that nothing awful happened to her. Instead, he kept watching on her


    condition so that cloud of doubt was gradually lifted.


    Jacob had a point. If he was really persistent in aborting the baby, he would have let the procedure


    continue while she was sedated.


    He epted the baby for her sake. He wasn''t over what happened between Jack and Emily so he had


    to pretend that everything was fine.


    She knew she had to remain vignt.


    Once the baby was born and was still with Jacob in the following days, things could eventually go


    wrong in the long run.


    Any man wouldn''t be pleased if he watched the woman he loved give birth to another man''s offspring.


    The baby would always remind Jacob of that Emily had a rtionship with someone else. Surely,


    Jacob wouldn''t be able to control himself and finally explode one day.


    The thought of leaving the mansion had always been in Emily''s mind. She had to raise this child all by


    herself alone if she wanted to keep things peaceful.


    She tried to think of a n and prayed that the heavens would listen to her prayers. One fateful


    afternoon, she got the perfect opportunity and Jacob wasn''t home.


    Jacob was not at home. There was a truck in and out of the vi, which specially delivered fresh food


    for Emily.


    No one noticed Emily quietly hid herself in a big basket. This was picked up by the truckers and ced


    it inside the truck then left the Tyrone Mansion.


    Emily''s heart thumped inside her chest. She was unsure when the truck would stop. When the truck


    stopped at the entrance of a vegetable market, she managed to sneak off the truck quietly.


    Since Emily was in her early stages of pregnancy and didn''t look obviously pregnant, she ran as


    quickly as she could from "danger zone".


    That was how she fled the Tyrone Mansion.


    Now where could she go?


    She touched the bank card inside her pocket. She didn''t expect that it woulde in handy.


    It wouldn''t be too long before Jacob found out that she had gone. She had to go some ce where he


    wouldn''t be able to find her!


    Emily withdrew some money for food and hailed a taxi going to the airport.


    On her way, a dirty beggar stopped her.


    "Are you hungry? Here is some food." Without thinking for too long, Emily handed the newly-bought


    food to the beggar.


    The beggar grabbed the food and started to gobble it up. Then she paused eating and hugged Emily''s


    leg.


    Emily winced at what the beggar did. The beggar was a woman who wore rags and her hair was in a


    mess.


    The beggar seemed familiar and Emily''s eyes widened when she recognized the beggar.


    "Rose? Is that you?" Emily was unsure. Ever since Rose set fire in the hotel, she had never heard


    anything from the woman ever again


    She didn''t expect she would see Rose under this circumstance. From what she knew, Rose fled and


    was being searched by Jacob and Mark.


    Rose groveled and begged, "Emily, I''m so sorry. Please have mercy on me…"


    Emily gave a cold stare, stepping back. "What the hell do you want?"


    Rose continued eating and knelt in front of Emily, "I have suffered a lot these past few weeks. I am


    asking you to help me! I beg you!"


    Emily tried to pull back her leg, but Rose clung tighter. She red, "There''s nothing left to say. You did


    this to yourself!"


    Emily, I know I was wrong and I regret it. Do you know how miserable I have been all this time? Jack


    imprisoned me in his basement and tortured me day after day. He broke my legs then waited for it to


    heal so he could break them again!"
